Romanée Conti 1997 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
u. 2x3cm, 1 damp-stained and wine-stained label, both with Mexican import sticker overlapping front label, import sticker overlapping back label, sign of seepage

Heavenly 'sweet', ripe nose. Deeply scented projection. A mouthful of best Burgundian terroir, untrammelled fruit and multi- dimensional flavour. This is a Romanée-Conti that will turn gamey - I am convinced it will be the grouse wine 'par excellence' in ten years' time. Glorious rich, gummy, thick yet elegant texture. Renoir in the glass! Unfolds endlessly. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 95
